Film celebrates historic bronze win of Indian women’s ice hockey team

New Delhi, Aug 12 (UNI) A new film 'Sound of Courage’ celebrates the Indian Women’s ice hockey team and the fascinating saga of how they overcame societal hurdles, problem of below par resources and oppressive climate conditions to win the bronze at the recent Asia Cup.
The team did the nation proud as they finished third at the 2025 IIHF Women's Asia Cup in Al-Ain, UAE in June.
The film by Pocket FM is set against the stark and stunning landscape of Ladakh. It documents how these women braved societal resistance, inadequate gears, and freezing temperatures to chase a dream many deemed impossible. Often training in borrowed men’s gear, their story is one of courage, conviction, and unrelenting belief in themselves.
“Victory is born out of persistence,” said Tsewang Chuskit, the team captain.
“Our journey was filled with doubt back home, but it was our association that believed in us and stood by us. Still, we chose to listen to our inner voice. ‘Sound of Courage’ reflects our truth- it’s a reminder that trusting yourself can change everything.
“We didn’t just win a medal- we made a statement. Against all odds, we carved our own path, broke barriers, and proved that passion knows no boundaries. This Bronze at the IIHF Asia Cup isn’t just about the game - it’s about resilience, belief, and a dream that refused to die," she added.
She dedicated the feat to the players, parents, coaches, and support staff, "who believed in us when few did".
You showed up when it was hard. Together, we turned every challenge into a stepping stone. We are more than a team- we are a movement,” said Harjinder Singh ‘Jindi’, General Secretary, Ice Hockey Association of India and Member, IIHF Asia Committee.
The film features the players from India’s Women’s Ice Hockey team including Tsewang Chuskit, Sonam Angmo, Sonam Angmo (Kanji) Skarma Rinchen, Rinchen Dolma, Sherap Zangmo, Padma Chorol, Rigzin Yangdol, Dechen Dolker and Diskit C Angmo.
